The frame in high-grade steel is currently experiencing a renaissance in the cycling world and people turn away from cheap bikes in aluminium and mediocre brand bicycles. You will never forget the feeling of a Pilen Bicycle. Safe and resilient. The bicycles are wholeheartedly rust protected and components are selected with expertise and experience. A bicycle from Pilen is often a life-long companion. Are you ready to fall in love? We recommend a test drive.

Pilen bicycles is about love – for cycling, craftsmanship, material and bicyclists

Pilens are crafted in Gamleby, Sweden, in a family company. Pilen offers distinctive design with high production values, small scale and the personal involvement of the owners. Martin and Louise Avander built the production line and he is involved in the manufacture of every machine.

is what we call it when you customize a Lyx to be your very special friend on the road – Pilen Special

Pilen Special is not really an original concept, but a customized Lyx. It starts from the Lyx model's frame and fork and you can choose colors and selected components to suit your preference and taste. Single coloured bicycles and white and brown tyres are popular choices.

It is a lighter but still strong and agile bike for active people who value flexibility and speed over strength and stability.

Pilen Sport is inspired by the indestructible and hearty swedish sport bicycles from the 70s that many swedes remember with delight and not a few have left in the garage. It is a sporty classic bike but no extreme stripped down racing bike. Naturally it can be equipped with basket and covering chain-cover.

Pilen Supersport is Pilen's most advanced classic sport bike. The most notable difference with the Sport model is that it can be equipped with disc brakes.

The Supersport has a more sophisticated frame, compared to the standard Sport model, with rear vertical drop-outs which allows the use of disc brakes, brass brazed brackets for derailleur and chain tensioner.

Since 2011, you can tailor a Pilen Lyx to be your very own special friend on the road – Pilen Special. Lyx and Special share frame and fork and you can choose colours, saddles, accessories and selected components to suit your preference and taste and build you Pilen Special.
